Call for Judgment: A Page Is Not A List

For each attempt to claim a Ladder Combo this dynasty whose target did not appear on the EFF Wordlist wiki page with 5 digits preceding it on the same line of that page, revert any gain of Equity and any addition to the list of Sins that resulted from the claim, and revert the reduction in Discs that occurred when spending a Disc to make that claim attempt.
The “Ladder Combo” rule requires the target to be a Ladder Word, and one of the conditions to be a Ladder Word is that it must be “on the EFF Word List”. This wording seems to refer to the list itself – not to the page containing it. (The text of the rule has “list” as a separate word, implying that it’s the list itself that matters, not anything that might be around it – further evidence that it refers to the list, not the page, is that the name of the page (“EFF Wordlist”) is slightly different. The text in the rule is not a link to the page, and if it were formatted as a link, it would be a broken link; if not for the fact that the page is mentioned in other rules, it would not appear from the rule’s current wording that it even could refer to a wiki page rather than a list.)
This is worded like it is to ensure that it doesn’t revert the proposals which were made as part of the claim attempt.
